Most packs come in different sizes or have suspensions adjustable to your torso length. The most important thing is to match your torso length with the size of the pack.

Torso:

Measure your torso length by bending your head forward so your chin touches your chest. Feel for the most prominent bump at the back of your neck. Now measure from that point down to an imaginary line connecting the tops of your hips around your back. This works best with a partner's help.

Description

Fits like a glove.

Designed specifically for women's bodies, The North Face Women's Terra 55 Backpack doesn't compromise comfort or functionality. In fact, this weekend-specific pack easily supports 45-pound loads, thanks to the plush and fully adjustable Optifit harness system. To adjust the pack to your individual torso, simply undo the center cam release and slide the shoulder harness up or down for an ideal fit. A sleek and anatomically correct shoulder harness conforms to your body, and the vertical channel ventilation promotes air circulation when backpacking under hot, humid conditions.

Seven total pockets make this pack a veritable pack mule for multi-day excursions, and two exterior pockets hold water bottles for easy access. A large zippered side entry allows access to the main compartment without disturbing the pack's entire contents, and a sleeping bag compartment makes for organized packing. Allowing for on-trail safety in case of an emergency, the pack's chest buckle doubles as a safety whistle.

Perfect for Summer Trips

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Used this for a 5 night backpacking trip in the Grand Canyon. I was able to fit all the essentials for a summer trip this length since I didn't need as many layers. Sleeping bag compartment is pretty big too! Lots of pockets and opening. I'm also 5'2" and this pack is the perfect size; not over bearing for someone who is shorter. I can't wait to get this out on more trips!
